I personally wouldn't count Tyron Smith out yet. On the decline at this point and missed most of 2020 - after the surgery he might be back at his 18/19 pro bowl level. But he enters 2021 with a question mark

That’s why I had him as a honorable mention. I think he can have one more great year but need to see it first.

I don't get the low ranking for Moton. He plays in the same division as Ramczyk and Wirfs, and their scheme last year was pretty wide-open.

He isn't on an island as often as those two are and doesn't dominate his assignments quite like them either imo, but obviously still a very good, well-rounded player.

Jason Kelce has been 3 of the last 5 all-pro centers and was the lone bright spot on the Eagles last year… yet doesn’t even make honorable mention?

Honorable mention is fair, but this is a projection for 2021 and I think Kelce has been trending down for a couple of years. He's probably outside of his prime at this point, yet still very good.

Braden Smith?? He was one of the best RTs in the league last year. 0 sacks allowed and one of the best run blockers.

He gets more help in pass protection than the best RTs

No love for Vita Vea I see? (missed a lot last season with injury). He should be a top 5 DT this season.

I had him as an honorable mention before editing and forgetting to put him back. Ability wise he’s high on this list. I’d like to see more as a rusher in 2021. Definitely a guy on the rise who I’m a big fan of.
